FAQ's: Electrician's Drill Bits

Ship auger bits or flex bits for drilling through studs and joists.

Use a masonry bit that matches the wall plug diameter—typically 6mm to 10mm.

Most are, as long as they match the drill's chuck size (usually 3/8" or 1/2"). Specialty bits may need adapters.

Auger bits are ideal for drilling long, clean holes through multiple studs without splintering.

A lightweight, high-torque cordless drill with variable speed and compact design is best for electricians.

A cordless drill and a set of job-specific drill bits are among the most-used tools for electrical installations.

It depends on the wire gauge and application. For Romex, 3/4" to 1" is typical through studs.

Common plug sizes range from 3/4" to 1 1/8"—step bits are ideal for this because they can create multiple hole sizes in one pass.

An "electrical bit" refers to a drill bit designed specifically for electrical work, such as wire routing or panel installation.

Electricians typically use cordless power drills paired with step bits for metal, spade bits for wood, or fish bits for running wire.

Step bits, auger bits, spade bits, and extra-long flex bits are most commonly used by electricians.

Spade bits are faster but rougher. Auger bits are slower but cleaner and better for deep or repeated stud drilling.

Yes. Extra long bits (18" to 48") help reach behind walls, above ceilings, or through multiple framing layers without opening up drywall.

Most electricians use a step bit that covers 3/4" to 1-1/8" sizes for standard conduit fittings. Always check local code and fitting requirements.

While possible, regular bits often cause tear-out or aren’t long enough. Electrician-specific bits are designed for clean, efficient cuts and tight spaces.

Electricians often use step bits, auger bits, spade bits, and extra long bits. The right bit depends on the material being drilled and the job—metal boxes, wood studs, or finished walls.
